Chareidim will build a Holocaust museum in Brooklyn, No photos of murdered Holy Women, when men attend!

Just like the Nazis!
 The first thing Mengele ימח שמו did was separate the men from the ladies.

This is not a Shul, nobody is going to daven there, but these crazy extremists will not allow a husband and his wife to visit the museum on the same day. A father will not be able to take his daughter to visit the museum. A mother will not be able to take her son to see the museum. A holocaust survivor will not be able to share their experiences with a grandchild of the opposite gender. 

It won't be long before these Taliban Rabbis will prohibit you from sitting with your wife and daughters at the Shabbos table together. They already don't allow your daughters to sing  זמירות .... This new prohibition first appeared in the תשובות in 1980's. For 3,500 years this was never a שאלה ...  Daughters sang זמירות in "der alter heim" 

The Rabbis first  manufacture  the  "solution״ then they develop the "question" .... 

What is going on? Are we becoming Arabs? Is this Yiddishkeit?
It's no longer ok for a married couple to spend the day together.
It's no wonder that we are loosing our children.

Eli Kleinman, the חכם פין דער מה נשתנה, and the one behind the Brooklyn Holocaust project, consulted with some Rebbe, a fanatic, who he refuses to name. 

The unnamed fanatic advised him to go ahead with the museum but  have the men and women come in on different days. In addition  all pictures of the murdered dead women would have to be removed on the days the men attend, because the men may get aroused.

The pictures of the murdered men will not be removed and will be shown  on the days  the ladies attend, because the ladies don't have the same perverted thoughts that the Chareidei men that visit the museum, have.
At least that is Eli Kleinman's assumption...

According to the article in Forward, the museum will not credit the Zionists for saving the lives of the Satmar And Belzer Rebbes '! 

The museum will also not mention the fact that Satmar, Belz and other Rabbonim advised the European Jews to remain in Europe while they and their families fled to safety. .

It will not mention that Binyomin Zev Jabotinsky, way back in 1938, warned Polish and Hungarian Jewry that they "were living on the edge of the volcano" and  that a wave of "super-pogroms would happen in the near future." He  ran from shul to shul advocating  Aliya to Palestine because of the impending Holocaust.

It will not mention that the Rabbonim told their followers to ignore him , because he was a Zionist.

It will not mention that there were frum Kapos that were extremely cruel to the inmates, and that one of those frum cruel sadistic kapos became the ראש הקהל of a prominent Shul in Boro-Park! והמבין יבין

 It will not mention that Zionists, both men and women, parachuted into the war zone to try to save Jews and were apprehended by the Gestapo,  tortured and murdered by the Nazis!

 Don't waste your time with this building that will house material to brainwash your children. If you want to visit a  Holocaust museum go either to Yad Veshem, the Holocaust Museum in lower Manhattan or Washington DC ....... 
This Boro-Park museum like Artscroll biographies are a bunch of lies masqueraded as the truth!

Here is the article from the Forward!

 Is it permissible to show images of Jewish women with their heads shaved but without a head covering as they 
walk towards Nazi gas chambers?

This is the type of question faced by organizers of the first Holocaust museum to be aimed specifically at Orthodox Jews.

Elly Kleinman, the Orthodox businessman behind the project, sought the advice of a Hasidic rabbi on this question not long ago. Kleinman said that the rabbi told him: “Are you allowed to show it? You are obligated to show it.”

But Kleinman, who declined to name the rabbi, said he wanted to accommodate the cultural sensitivities of the community’s more conservative wing.

So, for groups that shun images of women, the Kleinman Family Holocaust Education Center will have a separate track in which the material on display will not include pictures of women.

“Our objective is to cooperate with all constituencies,” Kleinman said, adding, “We expect to resolve these issues within the community.”

It is the need to wrestle with such issues that makes the museum, which is slated to open next year in Brooklyn’s heavily Orthodox Boro Park neighborhood, still a work in progress.

I

Organizers of the project say theirs will be the first museum in the world dedicated to the “Torah-observant experience.” This, they said, is an approach not seen in any of the Holocaust museums around the world.”

Kleinman, wearing a sharp blue shirt and a pair of dark, horn-rimmed glasses, is seated behind his desk at the Brooklyn headquarters of his home health care company, Americare Certified Special Services.

He has a trim white beard and wears a black yarmulke. On the office wall behind him are photographs of two prominent ultra-Orthodox rabbis: Yaakov Perlow, who is known as the Novominsker rebbe, and David Twersky, the Skverer rebbe. Next to them are photographs of Kleinman meeting with presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.

Dozens more pictures line the wooden furniture around the office. There are photographs of local and national politicians, such as Republican New York Rep. Peter King, Democratic Senator Al Franken of Minnesota and Hillary Rodham Clinton. Sprinkled among the American dignitaries are Israelis, such as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the former Israel Defense Forces chief of staff Gabi Ashkenazi.

Americare has attracted negative publicity lately. In January, an article in The New York Times drew attention to several recent lawsuits against Kleinman’s company that “detailed patterns of patient mistreatment, forgery of medical documents and sexual misconduct by a top executive.”

Americare was fined $7 million in 2005 for fraudulent billing at its care homes. In 2008, the company was fined $8 million for employing home health aides who were not properly trained to care for Medicaid patients.

“I am not going to talk about Americare today,” Kleinman said when asked about this. “That’s not what we are here to discuss.”

Instead, Kleinman talked passionately and at length about the Holocaust, anti-Semitism and his plans for the KFHEC. Both of Kleinman’s parents are Holocaust survivors. His 90-year-old mother, Ethel Kleinman, was in Auschwitz. His father, Avrohom Kleinman, endured slave labor and a death march.

Kleinman, who has sunk about $4.5 million into the project so far, says the center is intended to teach much more than just history. He hopes that his target audience, Orthodox schoolchildren in grades seven through 12, will learn about Jewish tradition and laws through stories of courage and resilience: mesiras nefesh, sacrificing one’s life; bitachon, trust in God, and emunah, belief in God.

But according to Michael Berenbaum, a Holocaust scholar who advises KFHEC on its exhibition, a historically honest exhibition will, inevitably, also challenge some Orthodox museum visitors’ preconceptions with its stories of piety under stress during the Holocaust. 

There is, for example, the case of Rabbi Yehoshua Moshe Aronson, who, while living in a labor camp, in Kolin, Czechoslovakia, was asked if it was permitted to eat nonkosher food not just to prevent death due to starvation, but also, preventively, to preserve one’s strength. Aronson not only permitted this, Berenbaum said, but also led by example, eating the prohibited food himself in public.

In another case, Rabbi Michoel Dov Weissmandl, a revered religious leader of World Agudath Israel, in Czechoslovakia, strongly criticized a Jewish partisan who showed him that he was continuing to wear his tzitzit, or prayer fringes, under his shirt even as he fought the Nazis. Rather than praise his religious commitment, Weissmandl remonstrated the fighter.

“What is it about the law of pikuach nefesh [preserving human life above other religious laws] that you don’t understand?” he asked, according to Berenbaum. Weissmandl feared that the partisan could be murdered by the Nazis or even by his fellow partisans if people knew he was Jewish. As Berenbaum related it, the rabbi instructed the partisan, “Your most important task is to survive.”

“They are in a process of wrestling with these kinds of stories,” Berenbaum said.

Kleinman has aims for the museum that go beyond just telling the story of the Holocaust itself. He wants visitors to learn about the vibrancy of Orthodox life in prewar Europe and about the flourishing of Orthodox life after the Holocaust. He also wants them to think more about anti-Semitism and about how easily a civilized country such as Germany could descend into barbarity. Jews often refer to America as a medina shel chessed — a country of kindness — Kleinman said. But toleration can disappear in an instant.

“We want these children to understand that [it] can be taken away from you like that,” he said, snapping his fingers. The Holocaust is a complex issue in the Orthodox world.

Many liberal or secular Jews refer to the Holocaust using the term Shoah, Hebrew for “catastrophe.” Ultra-Orthodox Jews are just as comfortable using the phrase Churban Europa, which uses using the same Yiddish word, churban, with which they describe the destruction of the Temple.

A small but significant minority in the ultra-Orthodox community believe that the Holocaust was divine punishment for Jewish assimilation, intermarriage and the emergence of liberal streams of Judaism, such as the Reform movement, that do not accept traditional Judaic religious strictures.

“The minority of the righteous undergo the tribulations sent because of the sinful majority,” wrote Avigdor Miller, a popular ultra-Orthodox rabbi who died more than 10 years ago, in “A Divine Madness,” a collection of his reflections on the Holocaust.

In an interview last year, Rabbi Yitzchok Frankfurter, editor of the Orthodox publication Ami Magazine, and a rabid hater of Israel, pushed Kleinman on whether the KFHEC would include different interpretations of the Holocaust.

“We’re not going to say that that generation was chosen to be punished for a specific reason,” Kleinman responded. “We’re not going to get involved in that.”

But at the end of the interview, a brief article advertising an upcoming KFHEC event commemorating the liberation of Buchenwald on Tisha B’Av noted that since the day the Second Temple was destroyed, “we have been exiled from our land, and we recognize that any subsequent persecution is a result of our distance from Hashem.”

Although the article was written from the perspective of the KFHEC inviting people to attend its own event, Kleinman said that Ami Magazine must have written the article,

An employee at Ami Magazine who identified herself as “Malkie” told the Forward this was incorrect. She said the article was submitted by the KFHEC.

Kleinman said that the museum will not negate the experience of the non-Orthodox or judge survivors who lost their faith. One of Kleinman’s own uncles, a survivor who lives in Haifa, Israel, is not observant.

But Kleinman and top administrators at the KFHEC stressed that the center would approach the Holocaust in a way that is not seen elsewhere.

Sholom Friedmann, director of the KFHEC, said that most Holocaust museums focus primarily on the Nazi persecution of Jews and on the message that the genocide must never be repeated.

Friedmann said that the KFHEC would focus on how Orthodox Jews maintained their faith and tradition during and after the Holocaust.

In several interviews with the Forward, Friedmann and his colleagues said that the Holocaust has been a neglected topic in the ultra-Orthodox education system for decades.

Most children have been raised in households of survivor parents or grandparents. But until recently, the Holocaust was not taught in ultra-Orthodox schools. Even today, only a minority of schools, mainly girls schools, teach the subject.

“This is a community that has more anecdotal information than anybody else,” said Berenbaum. “But what they don’t have is historical context in which to have the experience.”

Julie Golding, the KFHEC’s director of education, said that one of the principle reasons the Holocaust was avoided for so long was that many communal leaders were Holocaust survivors. The subject of the Holocaust was too raw for them, so they focused instead on rebuilding the Jewish community.

The KFHEC was supposed to open last year. But according to Kleinman, the project was delayed because it kept growing and the design had to be modified.

The museum will be housed in a Boro Park synagogue, Agudas Yisroel Zichron Moshe. The KFHEC is adding one and a half floors to the synagogue to create a 25,000-square-foot space.

In addition to exhibition space, the KFHEC will also hold an archive, a research library, an education department, an interactive media center and a video testimony room that will focus on Orthodox Holocaust survivors.

Construction is yet to begin, but Kleinman said that bidders packages would be sent out before Passover, and work is expected to start in the coming months. He expects that the museum will open by the summer of 2015.

The KFHEC has hired some big names for its project. David Layman, who helped design the National September 11 Memorial Museum and the Illinois Holocaust Museum, in Skokie, is in charge of exhibition design. Berenbaum, who is in charge of the exhibition narrative, was previously project director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington.

Berenbaum said the permanent exhibition would consist of three sections: What the Nazis did to all Jews; how Jews of all persuasions responded to the Holocaust; and, finally, the unique perspective of Orthodox Jewry.

The last element will include an overview of Orthodox life in Europe before, during and after the war, the rebirth of Orthodox life in the displaced persons camps of Europe, and the rebuilding of Orthodox life in America and Israel.

It will also include rabbinic responsa, or decisions, made by rabbis about when and how to follow religious law during and after the Holocaust.

Despite the focus on subjects of special interest to an Orthodox audience, the Kleinman Center’s leadership stressed that the museum would welcome all visitors.

Cindy Darrison, a former Democratic fundraiser and now the KFHEC’s vice president of institutional advancement, said, “This is inclusive of the Orthodox community, not exclusive to the Orthodox Jewish community.”

Creating a welcoming environment for visitors on the more conservative end of the Orthodox spectrum means making some sacrifices. A handout from the museum stresses that digital content and online resources will be “subject to appropriate filtering and packaging.”

Friedmann said there are “not going to be any displays people might find offensive.”

Rabbi Dovid Reidel, the KFHEC’s director of research and archives division, said museum staff are still grappling with how to portray women in the Holocaust without upsetting religious sensitivities.

“The last thing we want to do is suggest there weren’t women in the Holocaust,” Reidel said.

One recent day at KFHEC’s temporary office space in the Mill Basin section of Brooklyn, Reidel showed off several examples of artifacts the museum will display. One was a dark-brown suitcase, once owned by Edith Horovitz, a teenage girl from Hungary who was sent to the Budapest ghetto in 1944.

Reidel pulled out a photograph of Horovitz, who looked strikingly secular. She wore long, braided hair and a dark dress decorated close to the neckline with flowers. Reidel said Horovitz “was a religious Hungarian Jew, with the emphasis on Hungarian.”

Horovitz used precious space inside the small suitcase she took into the ghetto to store a challah cover. “This is a story of someone who is not Hasidish,” Reidel said, “but it was important for her to bring the challah cover.” Reidel turned to an album put together by Kathe Judith Goldbart, an Orthodox girl who escaped from Berlin to Shanghai in 1939, when she was 10 years old. Among the scenes in the album are photographs of Goldbart, dressed in the fashion of the day, relaxing with her family.

Asked how the museum could depict both women’s stories without offending ultra-Orthodox men, Reidel said that on days when ultra-Orthodox school groups visit the museum, they might have to make sure no images of the women are on display.

The KFHEC has organized a special event showcasing Goldbart’s Holocaust story, which will be held at Kol Yaakov Hall, in Brooklyn, on May 14.

The event will be for women only.

Jewish funded Brandeis University bows to Muslim Pressure, Withdraws Degree from Ayaan Hirsi Ali, but she tells them off!

Why do Jews keep pandering to Muslim Jew haters?

Her book "Nomad" is a must read!

Ayaan Hirsi Al, a vocal critic of Islam and staunch feminist, has today hit back at a Jewish funded Massachusetts university which withdrew its offer of an honorary degree following student protests. 

Brandeis University announced in a statement yesterday it would not honor the Somali-born activist at next month's graduation ceremony.

'The slur on my reputation is not the worst aspect of this episode. More deplorable is that an institution set up on the basis of religious freedom should today so deeply betray its own founding principles,' Hirsi Ali wrote in a statement, according to The Boston Globe.

'I can only wish the Class of 2014 the best of luck - and hope that they will go forth to be better advocates for free expression and free thought than their Alma mater.'

Hirsi Ali also distanced herself from the university's claim that she had been consulted in the decision and rejected its offer to participate in on-campus discussions.

'I assumed that Brandeis intended to honor me for my work as a defender of the rights of women against abuses that are often religious in origin,' she wrote. 

'For over a decade, I have spoken out against such practices as female genital mutilation, so-called “honor killings” and applications of Sharia Law that justify such forms of domestic abuse as wife beating or child beating. Part of my work has been to question the role of Islam in legitimizing such abhorrent practices.'

The university had come under growing criticism in recent days for its decision to honor Hirsi Ali, a member of the Dutch Parliament from 2003 to 2006 who is a vocal critic of Islam. 

Her comments in a 2007 interview with Reason Magazine were particularly inflammatory.

'Once it's defeated, it can mutate into something peaceful. It's very difficult to even talk about peace now,' she said of Islam. 

'They're not interested in peace. I think that we are at war with Islam. And there's no middle ground in wars.'

When news of the award circulated, more than 85 of about 350 faculty members at Brandeis signed a letter asking for Hirsi Ali to be booted off the list of honorary degree recipients. 

And an online petition created on Change.org Monday by students at the school of 5,800 had gathered thousands of signatures from inside and outside the university as of Tuesday afternoon.

'This is a real slap in the face to Muslim students,' senior Sarah Fahmy, a member of the Muslim Student Association who created the petition, said of the honor before the university withdrew it.

Bernard Macy, a 1979 Brandeis graduate, sent an email this week to Lawrence and several members of the faculty saying, 'Thank you for recognizing Ayaan Hirsi Ali for defending Muslim women against Islamist honor violence.'

But Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation's largest Muslim advocacy group, said, 'It is unconscionable that such a prestigious university would honor someone with such openly hateful views.'

The organization sent a letter to Lawrence on Tuesday requesting that it drop its plans to honor Hirsi Ali.

'This makes Muslim students feel very uneasy,' Joseph Lumbard, chairman of Islamic and Middle Eastern studies, said in an earlier interview. 'They feel unwelcome here.'

In a statement on Tuesday, the university announced its decision to withdraw the award. 

'She is a compelling public figure and advocate for women's rights, and we respect and appreciate her work to protect and defend the rights of women and girls throughout the world,' the university said in a statement..

'That said, we cannot overlook certain of her past statements that are inconsistent with Brandeis University's core values.'

The statement implied Hirsi Ali and university President Frederick Lawrencediscussed the withdrawal before it was announced.

Hirsi Ali was raised in a strict Muslim family, but after surviving a civil war, genital mutilation, beatings and an arranged marriage, she renounced the faith in her 30s.

In 2007, Hirsi Ali helped establish the AHA Foundation, which works to protect and defend the rights of women in the West from oppression justified by religion and culture, according to its website. 

The foundation also strives to protect basic rights and freedoms of women and girls. This includes control of their own bodies, access to an education and the ability to work outside the home and control their own income, the website says.

Hirsi Ali, a native of Somalia, has written and spoken extensively of her experience as a Muslim girl in East Africa.

She moved to the Netherlands as a young woman, and she was later elected to the Dutch Parliament. 

She wrote the screenplay for 'Submission', a 2004 film critical of the treatment of Muslim women.

Shortly after its release, the director, Theo van Gogh, was murdered on an Amsterdam street by a radical Islamist, who also pinned to the victim’s body a threat to kill Hirsi Ali.

Hirsi Ali is married to British historian and public commentator Niall Ferguson, who left his wife of sixteen years, former Fleet Street editor Susan Douglas, for the Somali intellectual.

He had three children with the former Daily Mail assistant editor. 

Hirsi Ali and Ferguson are understood to have met at Time magazine’s prestigious 100 Most Influential People In The World party in New York in May 2005.

3,300 year old skeleton with Ring of Pharaoh discovered לכבוד פסח

 A 3,300-year-old coffin was uncovered during excavations by the Israel Antiquities Authority near Kibbutz Sarid in the Jezreel Valley.

The coffin dates back to the Late Bronze Age, and contained the personal belongings of a wealthy Canaanite believed to be an Egyptian army official, according to the IAA.

The cylindrical clay coffin featured a lid in the shape of a person, and was surrounded by a variety of pottery, including food storage vessels, tableware and animal bones. The items were used as offerings to the gods, as well as sustenance for the dead in the afterlife, according to ancient Egyptian tradition.

An adult skeleton was inside the coffin, buried with a bronze dagger, a bronze bowl, and other trinkets. The graves of two men and two women who may have been family members were found nearby.

“Since the vessels interred with the individual were produced locally, we assume the deceased was an official of Canaanite origin who was engaged in the service of the Egyptian government,” researchers said.

A rare gold Egyptian scarab seal on a ring was found next to the skeleton. The seal bore the name of Pharaoh Seti I, who ruled Egypt in the 13th century BCE.

Seti I was the father of Ramses II, believed by some scholars to be the pharaoh depicted in the Passover story of the Israelites’ exodus from Egypt.

Another possibility was that the coffin belonged to a wealthy individual who chose to imitate Egyptian burial customs, the IAA said.

This was the first casket of this sort to be found in Israel in the last 50 years, according to the archaeologists.

The discovery of the coffin serves as evidence of Egyptian control of the area in the Late Bronze Age, according to the IAA.

During this time pharaohs ruled the country and Egyptian culture had a great influence on the local Canaanite elite. Signs of ancient Egyptian influence are occasionally discovered in different regions of modern-day Israel, the IAA said.

The coffin was found during preparations for the installation of a natural gas pipeline by the Israel Natural Gas Lines Company, which also financed the excavation.

"Ameleik" Rabbi appointed Leader of Shas Party!

Dear Readers, I think we lost the war. Time to start a new Religion and call it "Yehudit Emet"we will follow the saying of the Tanna Rebbi Akivah and Hillel whose motto was ואהבת לרעך כמך
We will wear grey hats with 1" brim, Woody Allan style glasses, long blue frocks made of denim, neon yellow ties,pink shirts and Skverer boots!
For the ladies: neon green baggy blouses and neon red skirts
No shaitels permitted only neon orange scarfs .... Only yellow  lipstick no other makeup!Bright Blue sneakers with 3" heels! 

Rabbi Shalom Cohen has been named the head of the Shas Council of Torah Sages.

Cohen, 83, has been a member of the Shas rabbinical council since its founding 30 years ago, and is the head of the Porat Yosef Yeshiva in Jerusalem.

Haaretz (http://bit.ly/1epkgjI ) reports, the title of maran will be added to Cohen’s name in tomorrow’s edition of the Shas party newspaper

A reception celebrating the placement will be held during the Passover holiday.

Cohen will be known as the party’s “head” and not its president, a title held by the late Rabbi Ovadia Yosef.

Cohen grew up in Jerusalem’s exclusive Sephardic Torah community, and is considered a master teacher among yeshiva students. He is also known as being somewhat controversial, as when he called those who wear a knitted kippot “Amalek” or the Jews’ enemy, and when he said that anyone who votes for the Habayit Hayehudi party would go to hell.

Did "juicing" kill the Jewish Peaches Geldof?

Geldof, 25, who was found dead at her home in the village of Wrotham, Kent, had spoken about her drastic eating habits in the past.

“I do juicing. You juice vegetables and then you drink it three times a day. It’s gross. I do it usually for about a month,” Peaches, a mother of two, told OK! magazine.

In 2011, she said she could lose about 10 pounds in four weeks by following the diet,the Daily Mail reported.
“I will lose it, then I’m back going mental for the chips.

“I have no willpower but with the juicing I’m like, ‘I have to do it because I have to lose this extra 10 pounds.’

“I’ll juice and then I eat chips.”

When the interview was published, Cath Collins, a spokeswoman for the British Dietetic Association, warned Peaches about her health.

“Surviving on fruit is a very dangerous diet,” Collins said.

“Peaches is at high risk of electrolyte abnormalities which could lead to acute cardiac arrest.

“Rapid dieting like this not only makes you lose muscle strength but wastes away your internal organs.

“It is what kills anorexics.”

Peaches responded to her worried fans on Twitter, after her dramatically transformed frame was revealed.

She said: “To those telling me I look skinny and to eat something, I can assure you I’ve just cut out eating crap.

“I still eat like a horse.”

She confessed that she was very aware of the pressure to be thin in the media spotlight.

“Sometimes it’s hard. If you open any high-fashion magazine, the girls in it are stick-thin and then they’ve been airbrushed down to the point where it’s just ludicrousness,” she said.

Kent police said officers were investigating the “unexplained sudden death,” and will hand their findings to a coroner, with a post-mortem to be performed in the next few days, but did not consider it suspicious.

Peaches was the daughter of Irish musician Bob Geldof and TV host Paula Yates, who died of a drug overdose in 2000. She grew up in the glare of Britain’s press, which reveled in the late-night antics of her teenage years.

More recently, she married for a second time, to musician Tom Cohen, had two children and worked as a broadcaster and writer.

Bob Geldof said the family was “beyond pain.”

“What a beautiful child. How is this possible that we will not see her again? How is that bearable? We loved her and will cherish her forever,” he wrote in a statement.

Cohen said in a statement: “My beloved wife Peaches was adored by myself and her two sons Astala and Phaedra and I shall bring them up with their mother in their hearts every day. We shall love her forever.”

Peaches was just 11 when her mother died of an accidental heroin overdose at 41. Yates divorced Bob Geldof in 1996 after forming a relationship with INXS frontman Michael Hutchence.

Hutchence was found dead in a hotel room in Sydney, Australia, in 1997, and Yates went on to lose custody of the three daughters she had with Geldof — Peaches, Pixie and Fifi — the following year. Bob Geldof later adopted Yates and Hutchence’s daughter, Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily.

Peaches Geldof’s death came as a shock to Britain’s entertainment and fashion circles. She was a frequent attendee at fashion shows in London and New York, and was photographed just last week at a London show for Tesco brand F & F.

In an interview last spring, she described how she had never fully recovered from the divorce of her parents when she was 6 years old and her mother’s death five years later.

“The transition of my mother, who was amazing, who wrote books on parenting, who gave us this idyllic childhood in Kent; and who then turned into this heartbroken shell of a woman who was just medicating to get through the day,” she said.

“On top of that, there was my father who was very embittered and depressed about it and for us children, an environment that was impossible, veering between a week with my mother that was complete chaos, and then with my father, which was almost Dickensian — homework, dinner, bed — because he was trying in his own way to combat what was going on at my mother’s.”

In her last interview, given to Mother and Baby magazine, Peaches wrote of her enthusiasm about being a mother and said that it had “broken” her “in the best possible way.”

“Becoming a mother was like becoming me, finally,” she wrote.

Modal Trigger

“After years of struggling to know myself, feeling lost at sea, rudderless and troubled, having babies through which to correct the multiple mistakes of my own traumatic childhood was beyond healing.

“I felt finally anchored in place, with lives that literally depend on me, and I am not about to let them down, not for anyone or anything.”

Monsey Meshugoyim put Matza Bakery in a Yeshiva Dormitory!

A town judge told the director of a Jewish congregation
onTuesday that it's not kosher to illegally bake matzo at an illegal school and dormitory.

"It's chutzpah to put a matzo oven near an illegal dormitory," Justice Alan Simon said in ordering Chaim Rosenberg, director of Congregation Ateres Yisroel, to remove the oven and all students from the Forshay Road complex until the proper permits have been obtained.

"I would strongly suggest that you keep (the school) clear from people," Simon said, adding that the complex, which includes a wood-frame single family house and three modular trailers, is "endangering lives."

Rosenberg appeared in court after the congregation was hit with two new violations Monday, when inspectors found a commercial matzo oven mounted 10 feet above the floor on cinder blocks, level with and blocking a handicap ramp in a wooden trailer next to the house on the 4.4-acre property. The congregation was cited for unsafe burning, and for burning too close to a structure.

Many congregations make their own matzo for Passover and do so in self-contained installations that officials said are safe. The ovens are temporary.

Ramapo Fire Safety Inspector Adam Peltz said he found the violations at Congregation Ateres Yisroel while responding to the complex Monday after complaints of heavy smoke in the neighborhood.

"The (Monsey) Fire Department determined that there was a matzoh oven at 33 Forshay," said Peltz, adding that the congregation also lacks the proper permits and fire safety devices required for a school and dormitory. He said the town does not issue permits for commercial ovens in residential properties.
Before Tuesday's arraignment on 19 violations, Rosenberg said the congregation does have a permit for the matzoh oven, but he was unable to produce one in court. He also said applications to operate the school have been filed with the Ramapo Planning Board.

The congregation had twice failed to appear in Town Court on violation charges in connection with the school and dormitory; Rosenberg appeared Tuesday after Simon issued warrants ordering officials to show up. The congregation was cited in 2009 and 2012 for operating a school inside the two-story building.
"They vacated the school and that abated the violations," Peltz said. "They subsequently sneaked back into the building."

Rosenberg didn't directly respond when the judge asked him if he would shut down the oven and keep the dormitories and school empty until all approvals were given. Simon told Peltz to re-inspect to make sure Rosenberg closed down the oven, which was fueled by burning coals.

Controversy over matzo ovens pops up in Ramapo during the Passover season. In April 2007, a rabbi built an oven into a yellow school bus on his property in Spring Valley. The rabbi used a pedaling system to heat the oven, with gas lines leading into the bus. The village closed him down.

Peltz said building inspectors were tipped off that the Ateres Yisroel school was operating again in February.

Many profit-generating schools in the town operate illegally and, if caught, get temporary approvals as long as fire safety requirements are met while the planning and zoning boards consider applications.

Congregation Ateres Yisroel has been cited for having no building permit, no certificate of occupancy, and no fire safety equipment, such as smoke detectors, interconnected smoke detectors and sprinklers, Peltz said. The facility also has electrical hazards and doors not on hinges, he said.

Peltz said the illegal five-room dormitory had 24 beds. Three 60-foot modular trailers were being used as a synagogue and lunchroom.

"The three trailers were latched together for one big room," Peltz said.Rosenberg said the dormitory was vacated, but Peltz told the judge that's normal during the holiday season and the students could return after Passover.

Rosenberg said the town wants the congregation to move faster on getting approvals.

Jew Rotting in Cuban Prison, No Asifas, No Pidyan Shevuois, No Aguda, No Yom Tefilah

How many girls do you have to rape, to get Satmar's attention to make a fundraising dinner to get you out of prison! Where is the self-righteous Agudah? Where is Lakewood ? Rabbi Moshe Green from Monsey won't get involved because Gross, the jailed Jew, hasn't had incest with his daughters, like  Weingarten!
Naw! He is a modern Jew languishing in a Cuban prison and didn't do any thing wrong, he didn't rip anyone off, so let him rot!

Rabbi Arthur Schneier, left, meets with imprisoned U.S. subcontractor Alan Gross March 6, 2012 in the facility where he is being held in Havana.

The U.S. contractor sentenced to a 15-year prison term in Cuba for attempting to establish an Internet service has gone on a hunger strike to protest his treatment by the Cuban and U.S. governments, his lawyer said on Tuesday.

The lawyer also criticized the United States for putting Alan Gross’s life in further jeopardy by launching a secretive “Cuban Twitter” after his arrest in 2009.

Gross, 64, was a subcontractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) when he was arrested on his fifth trip to Cuba in an attempt to establish an online network for Jews in Havana.

In 2011, a Cuban court sentenced him to 15 years in prison, adding greater tension to already fraught U.S.-Cuban relations.

Gross also repeated his plea for U.S. President Barack Obama to become personally involved in efforts to get him released.

Gross had already lost 110 pounds (50 kg) in prison before starting his hunger strike, according to a statement released by his lawyer, Scott Gilbert. He is confined to a small, constantly lit cell with two other prisoners for 23 hours a day, the statement said.

“I’ve been begging our government for more than four years to bring Alan home,” Gross’s wife Judy Gross said in the statement. “I’m worried sick about Alan’s health, and I don’t think he can survive much more of this.”
